This week was an exciting one as Liberal Youth signed a partnership contract with our liberal friends in Morocco to work together on a joint grassroots movement for political education in schools!

This new partnership is as a result of a project seminar we were part of in The Hague, on European and Arab youth perspectives on democracy, kindly hosted by our Dutch sister party Jonge Democraten.

Here's the contract being signed!

To get involved in this new, future project just email [email protected] :)

If you've woken as appalled as Liberal Youth is, here's some quick actions before work/your day begins -

1. Sign this https://www.change.org/p/david-cameron-britain-must-accept-its-fair-share-of-refugees-seeking-safety-in-europe?recruiter=false&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink

2. Email your MP to step up and put the pressure on the government to act with some bloody sense & compassion. Here's a template from the Refugee Council - http://act.refugeecouncil.org.uk/lobby/medcrisis

^ If you don't know your MP then there's a function to find them there through your postcode. All MP's emails can be found here (click on the name you need) http://www.parliament.uk/mps-lords-and-offices/mps/ - if you have twitter go ahead and tweet them too to show their revulsion at the current situation.

Millions of men, women and children are fleeing the Middle East and Africa to find safety in the West. The Independent believes Britain must no longer turn a blind eye to their plight and must work with other European Union countries to set and welcome a quota of refugees.

June has so far been a very busy month for Liberal Youth!

Members have been in Finland, Estonia, Hungary and Copenhagen - meeting with ministers to discuss free speech & e-governing, participate in a seminar on youth & co-management and join our sister party campaigning in the Danish national election!

Members have also been applying to IFLRY - International Federation of Liberal Youth's Free Trade and Gender Equality teams and to be part of the delegation to the COP21 (UN climate change conference) in Paris.

Great to see so many members involved internationally in so many different ways :D
